Taboo Master

Chapter 104 Money and Life

I thought he was referring to Nangong Feiyan, because that little fox hadn't shown his face since yesterday. Unexpectedly, we waited for about ten minutes, and sure enough, a... taxi floated slowly from afar!

Pay attention to my words, that's right, it's floating... over here, in the early morning mist, I'm so fast that I didn't even have time to blink, I just found the trace of the car, and the next moment, I arrived not far ahead place.

After I rubbed my eyes again, the car had already stopped in front of me. When the door opened, a man in a black jacket got out of it.

I took a closer look and couldn't help being stunned. This is actually the person who took me to Fuyuan Street last time!

He wasn't surprised to see me here, he just glanced sideways at me, then looked down at the three people lying on the ground, waved casually and said, "Get in the car."

I was completely stunned. How did he come here? Could it be that he and Shao Pei made an appointment early in the morning?
Shao Pei smiled at him and gave me a wink, so I had no choice but to suppress my doubts, and together with him, I loaded the three people on the ground into the car, and anyway, I had to leave here first.

However, this car is obviously too crowded for so many people, especially the three of them are in a coma, and Aaron's body is relatively strong, so it is impossible to get them all in.

The black jacket looked at the situation, pointed to Aaron, and said, "He, the trunk."

Uh, is that good?I scratched my head, looked at Aaron, and then at others, and it was only him who occupied the most space.

There's no way, Aaron, I'm sorry, just feel wronged for a while...

I muttered in my heart, together with Shao Peiyi, I put Aaron into the trunk with great effort, the black jacket came over and slammed the door shut, I asked worriedly: "Is this going to happen?"

Black Jacket didn't answer, but asked me instead: "Is your matter settled?"

"What happened?" I didn't understand what he was talking about.

"Fuyuan Street, you won't forget, right?" He gave me a weird look, as if I was pretending to be confused.

Fuyuan Street... My heart moved, and I said calmly: "That place is at most No. 78, and it seems that there is no No. 79."

I wanted to wait for his answer, but I didn't expect him to look at me again, but there was a weird smile on the corner of his mouth, he turned around and got into the car without saying anything, and then started the car.

I wondered in my heart, what is going on with all this, why everyone is so mysterious to me, is this weird Pingshan city still in the world?Why do I feel that many of the people I met during this time were non-human?

Shao Pei patted me and said in a low voice: "Idiot, if you go on from No. 78, it will be No. 79. Hurry up and get in the car. His time is precious and he won't wait for anyone."

I was dragged into the car by him, and I closed the car door in a daze. Immediately, I felt that there was a mist of smoke in front of me. The car seemed to be leaving...

I have to say that the next scene was very weird, because I saw the driver in the black jacket, who was not driving at all. To be exact, he didn't even put his hands on the steering wheel.

He was completely different from the time when he drove me to Fuyuan Street last time. Last time, he still drove decently, but this time he didn't look like a driver at all. He was more relaxed than me as a passenger, with his hands behind his head, as if I was thinking about something, and suddenly, I closed my eyes...

I was very upset, and I didn't know where he was going to take us, but after some ideological struggle, seeing that Shao Peiyi was still calm and composed, I cursed myself secretly: What's the big deal, at most it's a ghost car, you are a taboo master, you are a descendant of the Han family, you have fought with evil spirits with real swords and guns, are you afraid of a fart?

Thinking about it this way, my heart gradually settled down, and I will be at peace when I come. I went to ancient tombs and deserted tombs, and even played chess with an old weasel. Now it’s just a car, I’m afraid Are you crazy?
So I just leaned comfortably on the back seat, stared at the black jacket, and thought to myself, I want to see what you can do...

In the end, nothing happened, the car stopped quickly, and the scenery outside the window became clear. I looked outside, and it turned out to be the apartment where Nangong Feiyan lived.

And Nangong Feiyan was already waiting for us. As soon as the car door opened, I got out of the car and said to her puzzledly, "Maybe you called the car for us?"

Nangong Feiyan smiled and said: "Nonsense, the car doesn't call, so why not run away? Send them up quickly, I've already rented a room."

So I hurriedly carried all three of them out with Shao Peiyi, and saw that these three were still sound asleep, and I don't know why they were so sleepy.

The mission of the mysterious driver was completed. Nangong Feiyan took out something with him and handed it to him. The driver smiled slightly and never looked at us again. The car started to move forward, and soon disappeared into the morning mist.

I asked Nangong Feiyan: "What did you hand him just now?"

"Of course it's money. Don't you pay for calling a car?" She looked at me in surprise and said.

"Money?" I couldn't help being surprised, "The last time he took me to Fuyuan Street, why didn't he ask me for money?"

Nangong Feiyan burst into laughter, took out a handful of colorful money from her body and said to me: "Look, what he wants is this kind of money, do you have it?"

When I looked down, I was shocked, this is actually a handful of coins!The smallest amount above seems to start with 100 million.

"He... who the hell is he, isn't he a human?" I asked in surprise.

"How should I put this..." Nangong Feiyan thought for a while, and then said: "He should be human, but he is not completely human. This is a bit troublesome to say, and I can't figure it out. In short, you just need to remember , he is the ferryman of this city, that's fine."

"The ferryman..." I murmured and repeated, looking at the distant morning mist thoughtfully.

"That's right, he is a city ferryman." Shao Peiyi smiled and said: "His job is to send people to places they want to go but can't go. Legend has it that if ordinary people can meet If you come to them, you will be able to realize your wish that you cannot fulfill. Of course, a long time ago, they should have used horse-drawn carriages, but now that the times have progressed, they have changed to taxis..."

I was puzzled and said: "But I saw him on the side of the road a few days ago, together with some taxis waiting for customers, it seems that there is no difference."

Shao Peiyi and Nangong Feiyan looked at each other, patted me, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaotian, believe me, except for you, those people will never see him."

I froze again.

When Shao Peiyi, Nangong Feiyan, and I got He Tiantian and the three unconscious people upstairs, the morning fog had slowly dissipated, the cold streets gradually became lively, and people started A new day of life.

This is obviously a room that has just been rented, and it is empty, except for a bed, a table, and a few chairs, there is nothing else in it.

Seeing He Tiantian lying quietly on the bed, I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said to Nangong Feiyan: "I think you should know what happened last night, what should I do next?"

Nangong Feiyan spread her hands and said nonchalantly: "It's easy, let them rest for a while, after recovering, help them hire a car, and then go back to their hometown."

My eyes widened: "So simple?"

Her eyes were bigger than mine: "Yes, it's that simple, otherwise what else would you do?"

"Don't save people?" I pointed to He Tiantian and said, "Could it be that our troubles were all in vain?"

"Then what else do you want? Now that I know, this He Tiantian's life is over, and no one can help her. The only thing we can do is to help her go home as soon as possible and stay with her family for a few more days. If you It seems impossible to save her."

I was stunned, looked down at He Tiantian's pale face, and remembered what she said about the man who bought her ten years of life. I couldn't help feeling angry and clenched my fists: "But, let's just let that nasty guy Did he succeed? If this continues, how many people will be killed? Ten years after ten years, is he going to live as an immortal monster?!"

Nangong Feiyan stared at me for a long time as if she didn't know me, and then said: "Please, my cute and kind little brother, have you forgotten that this is a deal, and she is willing?"

That's right, this was originally a deal, you want what you want, and no one forced her to do it, she gave ten years of her life, and that person also promised to pay 500 million, which was fair and reasonable, and no one seemed to be able to fault it.

I was in a daze when Shao Peiyi interjected: "Actually, I also think there is nothing wrong with this transaction. If there is no such money, her mother will die of serious illness, and her family will be heavily in debt, and even her whole life." Toil, now she has spent ten years of her life in exchange for her mother's recovery and the happiness of her family. I think she is also willing. Even if you find that person now and force him to return his life to He Tiantian, her mother will not be able to How to survive this problem?"

I was speechless for a moment, what Shao Peiyi said was also very reasonable. In the face of survival and life, reality is often so cruel, and life choices are often so ruthless. If two people can only live with one, who will He Tiantian choose? ?
I clenched my fist again, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, I must find that person. Even though his money has helped many people, it is a taboo in itself for people to exchange their lives. , It is because there are too many such people that people's hearts are twisted and darkened, buying lives with money is itself an unequal transaction, and he should pay for it!"

I looked at He Tiantian and continued: "Even if she is beyond salvation, I hope she is the last victim."
